On the noise of the cars, I was in Albert Park and you don’t need earplugs but in regards to commentary, you cannot hear it when a car is going past but when it has left you should be fine. When they are in a different sector it’s alright. I’d personally take the FM radio and I wish I had personally.

@theicechick you’ll find it hard to sell it on race day itself – Silverstone tells anyone without pre-arranged parking to not even try to park on site. So the main queue into the car park won’t be of use to you, as they will already have parking arranged. And finding random people out on the motorway or the A roads without parking arranged already…[Read more]

@tprudzic Silverstone to Northampton is 16 miles, and it will be very hard to get anywhere by public transport after the race on a Sunday. Best you take a taxi to Northampton (and fix the fee before you depart with the driver), and then take the train into central London from there.

Hey Daniel – the gates open at 6am on Sunday. I am leaving at 5am (from Buckinghamshire) and hope to be parked up and in the circuit by 7am (but I have pre-booked my parking). Looking at the Silverstone twitter feed today, they say the traffic was moving quite nicely at 8am.

I wouldn’t chance anything on raceday morning. So if you can book some…[Read more]

Hello,
I need to go to London after sunday’s race, but I want to see as much as possible and stay at track as long as possible. Could u help me find best way of going to London by public transport as I would like to leave the track at about 18:30. I saw there are busses leaving straight from Silverstone but it is at 16:30. Is it hard to get to…[Read more]

Hey all, I got my Boyfriend 3 Day Club Silverstone tickets for his 30th Birthday. We are both stupidly excited about the weekend – both of us are big F1 fans, but neither of us have ever been to a Race. With the Tickets we’ve got, and the seats which I’m led to believe are fantastic, I’m hoping it’s everything we are anticipating and more!

This will be my first visit to the British Grand Prix after following it for many years. Does anyone know if the public will be allowed onto the track for the podium ceremony this year and if so where will the access be from?? We have GA tickets so will try to be in the right place and right time if we can!

My first British GP, fairly excited, i’ve done SPA a few times before but never the home country!! That said, first one by myself, being a parent now means my wife has an excuse not to come, I’m pretty sure she only came to Spa with me because it was a nice week away ;)

Any tips? I’ve got GA all weekend and the official camping. Plan to get there…[Read more]

Going to British GP on Sunday and my coach takes me & collects me from car park “West 4″. I can’t find a map of Silverstone (online) that shows car park numbers – anyone? Where is best to stand with small boy on general admission on Sunday? Thanks.
